Thus, the bank desires the winding-up of the company.
(3.) The bank has appended the exercise of documentation by which the cash credit account was open by the company. The documentation which a bank and a client normally exchange between themselves is a bilateral agreement on the basis of which a cash credit account rests. The account was opened initially in 1985 seeking a cash credit limit of Rs. 14 lacs. The company operated the account with the bank. This is evidenced by correspondence and a cash credit statement, a copy of which is Annexure 14. The cash credit limit was backed by a hypothecation facility, a preliminary security by hypothecation of stocks, an equitable mortgage of immoveable properties, a second charge of collateral security being a tripartite agreement with the permission of the U P Financial Corporation and a personal guarantee of the directors.;
